Answer:

The sales tax rate is 5%

Given:

Sales price = 5.00

Total amount paid = 5.25

Sales tax value = Total amount paid - sales price

                         = $5.25 - $5.00 

Sales tax value = $0.25

Sales tax rate = Sales tax / Sales price

                       = 0.25/5 

Sales tax rate  = 0.05 or 5%
